Augustinus
Entry updated 12 September 2022. Tagged: Author.
Pseudonym of unknown UK author (? -? ) whose two sf novels – Two Brothers: A Story of the Twentieth Century (1898) and Paul Rees: A Story of the Coming Reformation (1899) – are designed as religious propaganda; in both cases, saintly Catholics successfully oppose spiritualism and the spirit of untoward rebelliousness. In the second, set in 1905, a heathen UK is defeated by an Invention at the hands of the French: faith is restored. [JC]
